Ford F-150 (2009-2014) :: Engine All Of A Sudden Died In The Process Of Slowing Down

So last night I was on a 55 MPH road that has a gradual right curve, that ends up at a stop sign in a T intersection of a major highway. I was in the process of slowing down when the engine all of a sudden died. Then the brakes and steering went as stiff as can be. I made the curve and was able to stop at a semi decent location. After checking my shorts. I tried to restart it and it would only run a few seconds with rpm's jumping all over the place. the check oil light would flash and then the engine would die.

I was able to get it to move like 20 feet to the side of the road. The major problem is the bumper to bumper warranty was up 6 months ago. So I just had it towed home. Now it's time to figure out what exactly is wrong with it. I tried to borrow a code reader from the local parts store. But none of the ones by me will lend them out anymore. This is also my only vehicle for the time being. I have had the vehicle since feb of 2009. It is a 4.6L 3v engine and only has 27000 miles on it. I have read a few things online about them stalling.

Pontiac - Sunfire :: Engine Suddenly Overheats / Coolant Is Pouring Out

I am driving and my engine suddenly overheats. I pull over and see that my coolant is pouring out. I have it towed to a mechanic. The mechanic ran diagnostics and told me the problem was the water pump. After I agreed to that, he called and said he took it out for a test and the thermostat was broken. After I agreed to that, he took the car out again and now says the head gasket needs replacing. I asked why he didn't find everything at the start. He said he needed to test drive it to find out. Is this really how it works?

It is a 2001 Pontiac Sunfire ...

IS F (2008-2014) :: All Of A Sudden It Seems Like Car Lost Half Of Its Power

Bought the ISF about 6 months ago. I knew the previous owner who didn't abuse it. Was driving in 95 degree weather. All of the sudden it seems like the car lost half of its power. It still goes but doesn't pull like it use to. I checked for engine codes (none). Disconnected the battery for 5 minutes (no change) It seems like the throttle doesn't open into the secondary switch on the floor. Its just an even gradual response versus the kick once you get on it.

Also its a 2008 model

Santa Fe (DM - 2013+) :: 2014 / 2.4L - Sudden Shut Off When Driving At 65 Mph

A week ago, my wife and I were driving on the highway when suddenly our 2014 Santa Fe decided to shut off at 65 mph. When I say shut off, I mean EVERY SINGLE THING IN THE CAR DIED. All of the interior lights off, headlights off, instrument cluster, EVERYTHING. Being cool, calm, and collected, I immediately shifted into neutral, cranked, and all was back to normal. Not in the 2 years that we have owned this car has that EVER happened! I chalked it up to an inexplicable electrical anomaly.

Tonight, again, the same thing happened under different circumstances. This time, I was following her. She came to a stop at a red light, then once she lifted her foot off the brake, everything shut off. I instructed her to immediately put the car in neutral and try starting it. Like last time, it turned right back on. Apparently, there seemed to be an issue with the previous generation with the 2.4 motors.

Ford F-150 (2009-2014) :: Sudden Downshift Form 6th To 3rd At 50 Mph?

Recently my '11 supercab suddenly downshifted from 6th to 3rd while rolling along easily at about 50mph at the bottom of a very slight downgrade. It has done this 3 times now and takes me totally by surprise every time. I have an appointment next week to get it looked at, but my dealer is about 225 miles away and it's a real pain to take it in.

Lexus IS 2014+ :: Car Is A Bit Rough When Engine Is Cold

The tranny is a bit rough when the engine is cold. I understand cars run differently when they are cold (I'm not disputing that) but my prev 2IS' tranny use to be much smoother when running cold. I took my car to a dealer, made them keep it overnight and test when cold. They said the car is operating normal and the master tech didn't notice anything out of the norm. The car is jerky on the daily so it's not an isolated incident.

Lexus RX 2004-09 :: Sudden Drop In MPG On 2007 RX350

I have a 2007 RX350, now at 110K miles, bought at 80K miles. I recently notice a sudden drop in mpg about 5K miles back (it might happen before that but I did not notice). Previously, the car gets around 25MPG on average, now it can only get 21 - 21.5 mpg, my range of a full tank drops around 60 miles. My route of driving everyday is pretty much the same. I have tried to change gas branch, using fuel system cleaner (Chevron Techron), check tire pressure but no luck.

What might be happening with the car that makes this significant drop in mpg?

I changed power steering rack and pinion at a dealer also about 5k miles back and at that point I had a dispute with a service consultant there. He made me drive back and forth a couple times without telling me that the part hadn't arrived yet (the car was on extended warranty). I then emailed directly to his boss. After that he treated me really well: gave me a most recent model loaner car for a week and did not charge for gas, and waived the deductible. Now I notice the MPG drop so I kind of link with this event and put him in doubt . Well, I'm not sure if he could do anything to the car since he's not the technician but still ... Can a guy put something to a car to reduce its fuel efficiency?

Lexus SC430 :: 2005 - Sudden Whirring At Idle

I hope I didn't just happen to notice this today if it has been going on for any length of time now. I started up our '05 this morning and she's definitely whirring at idle. I do not recall hearing this sound at all recently and we've been on a couple lengthy trips with it. Fluid levels all appear normal.

Had my wife start it up too and she agreed that the whirring was not there previously. What are the most likely candidates into which I should look first? It' not high pitched, but a steady muted whir of the type I might expect to hear when two gears spin while making contact.

Lexus IS 2014+ :: Floored The Car For About 2 To 3 Seconds On Cold Engine

Paranoid about my car. Basically what happened was after work I walked to my car and there were a bunch of guys who were meeting up in the parking lot and were complementing me on the car . I always let the car idle until RPM reaches 1,000 and I did that today and as I was driving off I decided to show off a little and I floored it . just for about 2-3 seconds. it was about 70 degrees out and the car was sitting in the sun so the engine shouldn't have been to cold

I know it is bad to floor a car on a cold engine, so my question is how bad could I have potentially damaged my engine? it was sitting for about 3 minutes and RPM idled out to 1 but the hot/cold bar hadn't risen yet. it was the first time I did it on a cold engine and I bought the car so I want to do whats right to keep it running smoothly.

Lexus IS 2014+ :: Engine Misfiring On IS250 AWD F Sport

How this is still happening. My gf's '14 IS250 AWD has had 3 misfire code that popped up at about 8.5k, 13K, and 15k miles now. First time it happened it wasn't severe, it vibrated a bit and engine light lit up. Took it to Openroad Lexus of Richmond and they said it's a random misfire code and no other troubling codes came up. They suggested maybe it was bad gas. So they reset the ECU, cleared the code and we went on our way.

Fast forward to 13k miles, only about half a year later, it happened again, except it vibrated vigorously and the engine light is flashing. So we had it towed back this time and have them look at it again. Codes were random misfire and misfire on cylinder 3. Now this time they said the culprit is a bad ignition coil. So they replaced that and car is alright again.

At 15k miles, about 2.5 months from the last incident (a few days ago), same thing happened again. It even went into limp mode on a stretch of road that had a speed limit of 50 mph. So again we towed it in to the same dealership to have them fix it, yet again. Interestingly, the code is misfire in cylinder 5. The tech mentioned they tried swapped ignition coil and plug to see if problem will go away but it didn't so they checked the fuel injectors for fault. The injector was faulty and leaking. They saw lots of fuel in that cylinder so they replaced the injector with a new one.

She only ever gets premium for gas, so all that bad gas thing doesn't hold. And the car has always been serviced on time by Openroad Lexus of Richmond, according to their recommended intervals.

Lexus IS 2014+ :: Engine Generate Some Vibration In D Mode

Winter is coming. These two days are the first time my living area get below 5C (41F). The car start up fine as summer time. I let the car to warm up like 30 second as usual.

After I drove a short distance and the engine temperature indicator reach 1/3 of the level, I realize the engine would generate some vibration while I stop the car completely in D mode. You can actually hear the engine get louder and shake the car a little.
It happens whenever I brake the car to a complete stop.

However, it does not happen when I start my car or after the car is completely warm up (1/2 of the temperature bar). I am not sure if it is because of the cold weather or the engine hasn't warmed up enough. It has never happened before while the outside temperature is above 5C.. Yesterday, I thought it was someone beside me who turn their base speaker so loud beside my car. Today, it happened again. I am sure it is the engine. Our engine is always quiet. I am not sure what is happening.

Lexus IS 2014+ :: Sluggish To Up-shift Until Engine Warms Up

Having shifting issues with their 350? I have a 2014, AWD F-sport and ever since I got it about 4k miles ago, it's been sluggish to up-shift until the engine warms up. It commonly takes me 2 or 3 flicks of the paddle (or stick) to upshift into any gear and this is during very easy acceleration too (I would never romp on it until the engine is fully warmed up).

I would at least understand if it was on downshifts as maybe a way to protect the engine from revving too high when it's cold but it's actually doing the opposite by temporarily preventing me from lowering the revs. I've also always had a car with a manual transmission so I don't know if this is typical for shiftable automatics or not but it seems weird to me.
